Hello all! Be sure to check expiration dates!!! Especially milk when shopping! Stopped in this…read moremorning to get 1 quart fat free milk. All were expired (July 17). Today's the 28th so not a slight oversight. I brought to a store associate attention - never an I'm sorry, just lots of excuses for expired milk not being pulled. He did offer to go in back refrigerator and look for one not expired but quickly told me there was no guarantee he'd find. Then blamed Hood. I grabbed a good 1% and booked fast. Going forward, I'll be sure and never again forget milk during my usual grocery store (not Highland) trip.

I'm not even sure why and where you hire your employees at this point. Thank you!

I called today after a $12 item did not make it home--I either left it on the cart or on top of my car or in the store--and they said they would replace it for me if I bring in my receipt. That is just amazing. I was sick over the $12--thinking what I could forego buying to make it up. I love this store.

I found many interesting products which are generally not available in regular grocery stores. Frupack Guanabana the best soursop juice I ever tasted. I had some pieces of soursop in it, which enhanced the taste a lot. Lucuma ice cream was ok but for $10 a pint, it is very expensive. Guava cheese bread was a good bread to try. Ricarepa super special cheese arepas was a good try. Mango and guava ice was a concept from another culture. Casa Real Turron Crema was very similar to Marzipan. I liked it. Coconut milk horcetta was good as well. Overall, I found the prices in this place is higher than Stop and Shop.

Then this past year, the coolers went and products were even more limited until it was repaired. Okay those things happen. But recently some genius decided to move the produce section up to the front door (see how that works in the heat of the summer) and re-arrange the rest of the store shelves --- with no logic whatsoever. And today, most of the dairy was out of stock at 2 pm; I got the last quart of milk! Stores are successful for one my their managers and this place seems unmanaged; like a sinking boat being bailed out by the crew. You really need to resolve this stuff or you're not going to have a customer base for long. Shop-rite is right down the road.

My family has been shopping at this location for years, and it is my mother's preferred grocery…read morestore. My mother is elderly and has mobility issues, and I believe she likes this chain of stores because they are small, so everything is close together. I have never personally noticed that the prices are much better than those of Shop Rite, and when they are, I always notice a dip in quality as well. Their watery Greek yogurt springs immediately to mind. Regardless, it's my mother's preferred store, and previously, when she requested it of me, I would pick up her groceries here, since it's her money after all. I think that after today I won't be back. I was sent here by my mother to settle some issues with a receipt where a number of items weren't marked down as they should have been, and some produce needed to be returned because it'd spoiled two days after we bought it. Literally two days, by the way. It was purchased on Sunday, and I'm writing this on Wednesday, having just returned from the store. The cashier I interacted with was professional enough, and he immediately summoned a manager to handle the return. The manager was irritable and standoffish and seemed to regard this interaction as a total imposition, sneering that he wanted to know why the return hadn't been made three days prior. So basically why my eighty-year-old mother didn't immediately recognize the issues with the $190 receipt that she'd been given, with the dozens of items she'd purchased listed on it, turn the car right around, get her walker out of the back, and go back inside to raise the issue right then. Whose job is it again to get this right? Is it supposed to be our job? Are you people going to pay us to fix our grocery orders? You want us to do your job for you after we shop at your store? Is that it? And the manager disputed the validity of our claim because one of the items that wasn't discounted wasn't returned to the store, and there seemed to be a lack of understanding here: we didn't want to return the items at all, Aldi's could have kept the money for the disputed items; we wanted the discounts that should have been applied at the time credited to the card that was used to purchase them, and the money back for the rotten produce. We wanted the items, but for the promised, marked-down price. A store credit would have been sufficient as a compromise, and almost always is. But who has time to explain or work out a problem like this when everyone who works at the store all has exactly the same job, there's no customer service desk, and everything is done through the one register that's open? Especially when the manager shows up with a bad attitude and treats the customer like a problem. Why not just open another register, stupid? What are the other registers for? As it is the chicken that wasn't marked down probably went in the trash, and how flipping stupid is that? Such a waste. Frankly, this business model is stupid, and it sucks. Aldi as a store, sucks. At Shop Rite, this issue would have been handled within two minutes. They'd have given me a store credit and there'd have been no issues at all, and no food would have gone in the trash. The interaction would have been so unremarkable that I never would have thought about sitting down and writing a review, but maybe I should, because they're a lot better in pretty much every way than this place. I don't ever want to have words with anyone when I do my shopping, and after all the stupid crap I've put up with from this location, I've had enough. There was the incident last winter where a cashier used our grocery purchase to buy himself some eggs, and we had to go in and dispute it. I cannot count the number of times I've gone to this store and gotten the stink-eye from people because I expected them to honor their "double-back-twice-as-nice" policy, usually with bits of produce that went bad within two days, each incident resulting in our having to drive three miles out of our way to return this disgusting rotten crap that should have been thrown directly into the dumpster rather than being placed out on the floor. You know what, if we're going to be driving three miles out of our way just to shop at your store, I do want the double-back policy honored. Sorry. Why do the people who work here always seem to believe that the customers are ripping them off? Why do they treat customers like they're a problem? This is also the only grocery store where I've literally seen a rat hanging out under the produce section. Just chilling there with his little rat self, waiting for the lights to go out. So, I'm done. I've told my mother this as well. That from now on, if she wants me to pick up her groceries, I'll be buying from one of the innumerable other chains in the area. She will likely continue to shop here, and I hope you jerks appreciate her business. Her fondness for this store is the only reason this isn't a 1-star review. I'm done and good riddance.

On the morning of delivery, I was informed the cake was unavailable and would be substituted with something else. That was not acceptable, so I contacted Amazon. While they couldn't cancel the order, they issued me a credit, and I did not receive the original cake. I then ordered a 6-inch Chantilly Berry Cake for same-day delivery at 2 PM. It arrived early at 1:45 PM but was in terrible condition. The berries had fallen off the top, the frosting was damaged and ripped open on one side, and overall, the cake looked like a mess. I received a credit for this order as well, but the experience was very disappointing. I know Whole Foods in Glastonbury can deliver these cakes in excellent condition--I received one last July, and it was perfect. This time, the cake arrived in a flimsy box, which may have contributed to the damage. I appreciate the credits issued, but the quality and reliability of this order were far below expectations. I hope packaging and handling are improved going forward.

A thick metal pot that Spanish people use to make proper Spanish food). They come in several sizes. I like.
